The Taliban’s strictly Islamic Afghanistan is now the hardest place in the world to be a Christian
“Leaving Islam is considered shameful, and Christian converts face dire and violent consequences if their new faith is discovered.”
The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper.” (Qur’an 4:89)
